UK Leads NATO in North Atlantic | Glasgow News

UK Defence Secretary visits Iceland to oversee historic deployment of HMS Prince of Wales, marking first time a European carrier launches F-35s under NATO command in response to rising Russian threats. Over 1,500 British troops, including destroyers and support ships, are part of the Carrier Strike Group, while elite British forces now lead NATO’s high-readiness special operations force. The UK is also taking charge of NATO’s maritime reaction force, with HMS Queen Elizabeth set to become its floating command center later this year. Backed by a £298 billion investment over four years, this bold move underscores Britain’s commitment to collective defense and alliance unity in the North Atlantic.
